the "S" curves west of Morton. Across from where Co Rd 775 T's into
US 36 there is a lane. Go north down this lane to the fence at the end of the
fields. Go across the fence and follow the fence east until it meets a fence
going north and south. Follow that north/south fence north about 100 yards.
The cemetery is on both sides of this fence. The grave of Sarah Moler, along
with another base and a very old stone is on the west side of this fence. On
the east side of this fence are five illegible stones south of the maple
tree, one old stone just east and south of the maple tree, and two more
illegible stones east of that stone, just north of a fence. There are also about a dozen stones that
have been gathered and stacked in a pile. |

Cemetery
is in deep woods. There are about a dozen stones, which have been gathered up
and stacked together. It will not be possible to determine where the stones
actually go. There are several other legible stones standing nearby, as well
as several older field stones that were used as markers. There are a few dead
trees that could be cut and removed from area. |
